Madden NFL 2005
Overall: Game is great. Only picked it up 2 days ago, and I can't put it down. detail, and playability is amazing.Madden has always been my, (and most) favorite football franchise, and this is definitely no different.. Online gameplay is amazing, and more like a real game than ever. Definite 5.0 score from me.
Gameplay: A lot of the traditional madden gameplay is there.. with a ton of additions.. the playmaker option on D adds a whole new level to madden gaming. Real-time reads of the audibles and controlling the LOLB to drop back and cover zone, while putting the ROLB to spy the QB.
Hit stick on D is extra fun as well.. get the bigger hits with a quick tap of the joystick, similar to the old-style hockey game big hits.. don't miss though :)
I think one of the best features added this year is the more realistic running.. you can almost feel the weight of the player as you cut.
Graphics: Visual improves year after year.. can't believe the games aren't real!
One of the coolest features in the online lobby - having the EA ticker scroll with real-time scores from real-life games AND your online friends' games!
Also, (stats geek), I love the ability to auto-send game summaries to your e-mail account so you can review the game in the morning! :)
Audio: Sound is good.. better "madden commentary" than previous years.. (i.e. less repetitive), although I have only been playing the game for 2 days.
Recent good tunes as well.
Suggestions: Keep 'em coming! No complaints here!
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
Project Gotham Racing
Overall: Gameplay is great, excellent modes, lots of different ways to play the game. Graphics and sound are amazing, top notch by far. Two player option is not nearly as good as the real game.. can't even use a manual shift???!!! Quite disappointing and very limited multiplayer.
Other problem with the game is that the cars don't get damaged. You can smash into anything you want, and although your car looks damaged, drives like it is brand new.
Gameplay: Gameplay, feel, handling in the one player mode is great.. love the different types of play ,and quite a challenging game to get all the way through and win the ferari.
Graphics: Visuals are amazing. Top notch, as noted before. Can't ask for anything better in this game. Realistic cities and cars.. (I even think I remember the buildings from driving down Broadway in NYC).
Audio: Sound is awesome, great original track, and love the radio option, and the ability to put in your own music to drive to. Excellent sound.
Suggestions: Only problems I had with the game were the multiplayer, and damage ot vehicles (lack thereof). Otherwise great game, and lots of room for improveent.
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
